Michael Patrick Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 The innards are what I was really freaked out by. Usually in the course of 50 years something on the board has been changed, but that one on eBay looked absolutely untouched... Yours do look pretty, though, Doc....

mdrs Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Yea, Michael, it is hard to find these in "all original" condition. When master volume hit, everyone thought these JTM-45's were passe. So, mods were commonly done. Oppsy!! It's a little concerning that the back white panel with the serial number is gone. It may be totally innocent. The amp certainly looks good. The pictures are really great on the eBay auction. I wonder why the white back panel would have been removed? Don "There once was a note, Pure and Easy.

LPCustom Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 The one in the auction is not all original. The power tube sockets, at least, have been replaced. They say "Russia" on them. You could not buy anything made in "Russia" in the mid 60s. Even if you could, they would have said "USSR" on them and in Cyrillic (CCCP) rather than Roman letters (USSR). In any case, Tung Sol did not carry anything made in Russia/USSR in the 60s. No one would have bought them anyway (except probably people from Berkeley).

mdrs Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Hey LP.....that part of the KT-66 that says "made in Russia" is actually a part of the tubes, not part of the amp, nor is it an amp socket.

Michael Patrick Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 And he's including a set of GEC KT-66s on top of the Russian Tung Sol reissues. Did Tung Sol ever even make a KT66 back in the day? Buy Tangy's latest CD, "Sorta Like Very Ultra" The Official Tangy Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
